Bandwidth limiting to insure Quality of Service for all subscribers
Throttle bandwidth usage by any single subscriber back to the configured bits-
per-second (bps). This prevents any one subscriber from monopolizing the
network.
Custom Packet Filter
The packet filter checks every incoming and outgoing packet against a set of
custom rules. You can use this feature to block unwanted traffic or subscribers in
very broad or very narrow groups.
Host local HTTP pages and images
This feature allows you to upload up to 50 files totaling up to 2MB+ of file space.
You can customize the default pages used internally by the Controller or create
an entire custom web site.
File Sharing TCP Session Limiting
Limiting subscriber TCP sessions prevents spikes of activity by a single subscriber
with a worm or virus, as well as preventing subscribers from connecting to
excessive numbers of IP addresses, such as with a file sharing application like
BitTorrent.
Network Monitoring SNMP MIB-II support
Use the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to monitor and control the
Controller. The Gateway Controller supports SNMP v2c and the SNMP variables
contained in the MIB-II specification.
VPN and GRE Tunnels
Establish highly secure encrypted connections to another network using the GRE
and VPN tunnel standards.
MICROS (Oracle) FIAS, Galaxy, and MSI 4700 PMS based Authentication
